Thanks for the link Kevin. Nice site I do indeed see an astronaut. I met him 3 months back in Glasgow. Great bloke. Most interesting question I thought of to ask him was "how do you keep your glasses on in space?" The answer is rather banal. The guy is only 3 months younger than my dad (wears it better though) I did rather better when speaking with Bjarni Tryggvasson
